Dr. Gelasia Marquez, responding to President Obama’s Independence Day email to supporters:
Dear Mr. President,
Thank you very much for today’s reflection in your letter. Thank you for being so inclusive in your message. You help us feel the sense of commitment to this nation that open itself to us 29 years ago and gave us all sort of rights and opportunities to live in freedom, to achieve our dreams, to become responsible members of this society. Yes, we are in debt with this country more than to the one of our origin.
God bless you and give you the strength to continue inspiring all americans -even those who disagree. God be with you and your family.
And… happy birthday to your daughter today, too.
Dr. Gelasia Marquez and family.
